Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the broiler in your oven.

Step 2

Line with parchment paper a baking dish large enough to hold all the chicken.

Step 3

Drizzle each strip with a bit of olive oil then lay them on the parchment paper. Try not to let them overlap. Season them with salt and pepper, then scatter the sprigs of thyme on top.

Step 4

Arrange the lemon slices over the thyme and drizzle everything with olive oil.

Step 5

Broil the chicken for about 5 minutes. The broiler will give the lemons a nice char and allow them to release their juices over the chicken. Serve warm.
